My mother passed away last week. No will and lots of debt to make long story short. Her only assets that we can find is a checking account with maybe $800 and her car. We did find papers stating the car is covered by life insurance but she owes so much money that the car will go to her estate. She has a small life insurance policy of about $10,000. She was making payments on a mobile home that is worth $29,000. No other assets to speak of. Her ending debt including medical bills and credit cards is well over $200,000 (not exaggerating!) Since she has no will what little she has will go to estate from what I know. So should my brother and I (who are the beneficiaries of the life insurance policy) expect to even see any of the policy or estate? With her owing so much money to so many people is the state gonna just eat it all up and use it to pay her bills? We have no other family so it's not like anyone is gonna show up wanting money. We just wanna pay for her funeral. HELP!! :(

I held your hand through all of these breathtaking years.
I've tried so hard to tell myself that your gone.
When i cried,you'd wipe away my tears.
You would hold me close.
Tell me it would be okay.

What i wouldn't do to hear your voice.
To feel your touch.
Mixed emotions.

I told you i do not need help,
and i can take care of myself.
I told you that one night.
Only a week before you became sick.

I remember rushing to your bed.
Crying out my apoligies.
Begging you could hear me.
I feel like i'm falling.
Falling forever.
I cant breath.
Go ahead and scream at me for being a *****.
I've got to break through to you.
Wake up.
I'm drowning in misery.

You gazed into my eyes,one last time.
A smile lit your face.
You told me ,you thought i hated you,and that you thought you would never see me again.
Your last words were I love you.
I sent no reply.
No goodbye.
But a kiss.
Both our first kisses.
Though for you it would also be your last.

recently i got a mail invitation to Whos who among american highschool students and after a while accepted me in it, they say they have noticed my good grades and hard work in school. After being accepted they say i am now eligible to compete for 61 scholarships. i have never heard of it so i dont know if it is really impressive to be accepted in it. Should i be proud of myself for this? i mean i am already proud to be in it but should i be as proud as if i got accepted to a great university? How important is this acceptance? How hard is it to get into this who's who program? Should i feel honored that i am accepted or does all the high school students with at least decent grades are able to be accepted?

i know i asked a lot of questions and most of them are similar, i just wanted to let you guys fully understand what im trying to ask, you guys can just sum up all my questions into one. Thank you for giving me your knowledge

She works full-time 8 hrs. She has 1 break for 15 min. and 1 lunch for 30 hr. her team leader ( not her manager) told her that if she doesn't like it she will not schedule her in the high traffic area where she opens ALOT of credit cards and she would be placed in a low traffic area in a very slow part of the store. Can she file a harassment complaint against Sears?
I just find it strange that her team leader would make her work 7 hours straight with one 15 min break. My wife came home depressed with a stomache ache at night and couldn't sleep because she was trying to figure out why this was happening to her.

Okay...Long Story: There is this guy in my circle of friends who is very sweet, funny, just a lot of fun to hang out with and makes people laugh. I guess he likes me, he has felt that way for a while now. I think very highly of him, but I don't have feelings like that for him. I only see him as a friend. One time soem friends gave him my number with my permission, but I was trying to go back out with an ex of mine. Well he didn't believe me and got all butt-hurt about it. (this was 2 months ago I guess) Saturday Night at a party he was there and was saying how he got fed up and deleted my # from his phone, and asked for it again, I gave it to him, and I want to hang out with him AS A FRIEND, but I don't know how to tell him, and it'snot like I'm seeing any one else. But it sux because I'm a snob if I don't date him. I'm a bad person if I dump him, but I certainlty can't see myself marrying him so what do I do??? Thanks guys!!! =)

Okay.. so 2 weeks ago, i bought a 4-in-one printer, a faxer, scanner, printer, photocopier. When i came home, i just worried about printing out my project and making my friend a copy of a diagram, but then 1 week later.. i notice that the scanner doesn't work for my computer... like when i start to scan it freezes, so i called the HP customer service people, and i was on the phone with them for about 7 hours trying to fix the darn thing. So.. now it's 2 weeks and i think it's not worth it if i buy something that doesn't really work.. like the faxer, i dont really need it, and the scanner.. it doesnt work, i barely photocopy.. i just print. So i was thinking to return it.. but i printed a bunch for my project.. i was wonderin if when i return it to Costco.. would they make me pay for the ink?

Be it tattooes, breast implants, wild hair, piercings, etc. etc. What gives anyone the right to judge based solely on appearance? Prejudice based on looks alone is UGLY.
Isn't that what's really wrong with society? Isn't it better to judge based on action?

I think I basically know the answer to this, I'm just curious what yours may be.

Read the following joke and didn't understand what's wrong about the first sentence:

A girl from Texas and a girl from New York were seated side by side on an airplane. The girl from Texas, being friendly and all, said: “So, where y’all from?”

The girl from New York said: “From a place where they know better than to use a preposition at the end of a sentence.”

The girl from Texas sat quietly for a few moments and then replied: “So, where y’all from, B**CH?”

Can anybody enlight me? So what'd be correct to ask if you wanna know where somebody is living? Is it really "Where do you live?"

This is why we should write our problems, and deliver our griefs to those who give them to us.

Messages are more likely than violence to solve an issue.

Martin Luther King
Nelson Mandela
Gandhi

None of them gained power through war. All of them used words.

Can I have thoughts on this?
